Under Wang Chen's order, Mingyu Palace immediately entered a state of full alert.
A famous Yu Linwei quickly occupied the key points of the palace and set up a heavy crossbow.
Mingyu Palace was built for emperors to patrol the border. Although it is located in the center of Hanhai City, its own defense is not weak at all. It can be regarded as a city within a city.
Mingyu Palace is surrounded by tall and thick city walls. The front and rear gates are particularly strong. In addition, there are all kinds of facilities such as Arrow Pavilion, Tibetan Soldier Tower and so on.
If the main defensive measures are taken properly, the three thousand elite Yulin Guards will be able to hold on for a long time.
The only trouble is that although there is a well in the palace, there is no food and grass in the warehouse. It is impossible to survive for a few days just relying on the supplies brought by the Heqin team.
Therefore, as long as the enemy surrounds Mingyu Palace, over time, the three thousand Yulin Guards will inevitably collapse without a fight!
But the prerequisite for such a situation is that Han Haijun really rebelled.
Since the situation was unclear, Wang Chen and Sun Zhengheng did not act rashly and went to Hanhai County to raise troops to investigate.
On the one hand, they arranged the defense of the palace, and on the other hand, they began to interrogate the chefs and servants who were under guard.
It's just that these people basically didn't know anything about it. They were all trembling with fear, crying and begging for mercy!
"grown ups!"
During the interrogation, a Yulin guard hurried into the side hall and said anxiously: "A large number of sergeants appeared outside the palace, and we are surrounded!"
Wang Chen and Sun Zhengheng looked at each other, their hearts sinking.
The worst case scenario has occurred!
"Master Sun, you stay here to guard."
Wang Chen said decisively: "I'll go over and take a look!"
Sun Zhengheng nodded: "Be careful!"
Mingyu Palace is under siege, and only Han Haijun has the ability to do this. The situation cannot get any worse.
Under such circumstances, if something happens to Wang Chen again, then Sun Zhengheng has no confidence that he can protect Princess Qingyun.
He suddenly grabbed Wang Chen's arm and gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Taibao, if the situation is unstoppable, then I will take the Yulin Guards out of the palace to lure the enemy. You can take Her Royal Highness away."
Sun Zhengheng's plan was to sacrifice himself and Three Thousand Yulin to give Wang Chen and Princess Qingyun a chance to break out of the encirclement and escape.
With Wang Chen's ability to defeat ten thousand enemies, this opportunity is still great!
"Don't worry yet."
Wang Chen patted the Yulin Guards commander's arm and said, "We will act according to the situation."
He left the side hall and quickly came to the city wall at the entrance of the front palace.
I saw countless torches being raised near Mingyu Palace, and the swaying light of the fire reflected each and every soldier in armor. Their array was rigorous and solemn, and a chilling air shot straight into the sky.
It is undoubtedly Han Haijun!
As the only natural barrier in the western territory of Daliang, the importance of Hanhai City is undoubted. Although Daliang and Dayan have never had a conflict in recent decades and have always had a good relationship, their defenses against each other have never disappeared.
Pass.
In order to ensure the safety of Hanhai City, Daliang stationed an army of up to 50,000 people in Hanhai City.
The Han Haijun is not Hanhai County's local frontier army. Most of its members are drawn from the Northland in rotation. They have experienced the harsh war with Daqi and have rich combat experience.
Coupled with Daliang's huge investment in weapons and equipment, the eliteness of this legion is self-evident.
The most important thing is that the commander-in-chief of Han Haijun is an extraordinary figure!
"I am the crown prince's emissary, Wang Chen, the emissary for marriage!"
Standing on the wall, Wang Chen shouted in a deep voice: "General Shangguan is here, please come out and speak!"
Shangguan Wuji, Commander-in-Chief of the Han Navy, Sixth-level Martial Lord!
Hanhai Zhushi, who was titled "General Zhenxi", was one of the top figures in the Daliang military system.
He comes from a wealthy family and has a military strategist. He joined the army at the age of fifteen and has made outstanding achievements in hundreds of battles. He has commanded the vast navy to guard the border for ten years. He is undoubtedly the soul of this border army.
No action taken by Han Haijun can bypass this general!
As soon as Wang Chen finished speaking, dozens of lights suddenly appeared in the long street ahead, illuminating the entire street.
Flags were held high at the same time, surrounded by a majestic chariot pulled by four horses.
On top of the chariot stood a tall general wearing iron armor.
A few hundred steps apart, his eyes collided with Wang Chen's!
The general raised his hand towards Wang Chen and said, "It turns out that it's Wang Taibao who is in front of you, and I am the official here."
"Tiger!"
Before he finished speaking, the surrounding Han Hai soldiers all shouted, and the sound suddenly shook the wind and the clouds in all directions!
The military battle array can condense the supreme aura of intimidation, and has the power to intimidate the enemy and destroy all methods. Even the powerful demons do not dare to take advantage of it.
Once a martial arts expert falls into the formation, his cultivation will be greatly suppressed and it will be difficult for him to exert his full strength.
The faces of the Yulin guards guarding the city wall all changed.
They are the elite of the army and belong to the emperor's personal bodyguards, so naturally they have a lot of arrogance.
But facing the mighty aura erupted by the Hanhaibian army, they were suppressed before they even had a fight, which made me feel extremely aggrieved and uncomfortable!
All the fighting spirit was greatly weakened.
"General Shangguan, may I ask why you led your troops to besiege Mingyu's palace?"
Wang Chen shouted sharply: "Do you want to rebel?"
The Yulin guards around Wang Chen let out a long sigh of relief and felt a lot more relaxed.
Because most of the threatening aura from Han Haijun was dispelled in an instant!
"Rebellion? I have absolutely no intention of doing so."
Shangguan Wuji took a deep look at Wang Chen and said, "I am acting in accordance with the order. The reasons can be stated to Her Royal Highness in person. Wang Taibao must not take his words lightly."
By order?
Wang Chen was stunned for a moment, then scolded him: "Then you sent someone to poison the meat of the soldiers, and you were also acting on orders?"
Shangguan Wuji categorically denied it: "How could I, the great general of Zhenxi, do such a trivial thing!"
Wang Chen sneered and said, "If you are clear of guilt, do you dare to come in and state your case to Her Royal Highness in person?"
"What is there that I don't dare to do?"
Shangguan Wuji raised his hand and patted the shaft of the chariot: "Go forward and enter the palace immediately!"
The sergeant driving the chariot immediately shook his reins, and the four horses immediately spread their hooves, dragging the chariot towards the palace gate.
A group of heavily armed knights followed closely behind.
"Open the door!"
Seeing that Shangguan Wuji was really about to come in, Wang Chen ordered someone to open the palace door without thinking.
The Yulin guards hesitated for a moment, but still obeyed his order.
With a creaking sound, the heavy palace gate opened to the left and right. Shangguan Wuji's chariot broke through the door first, followed by hundreds of war horses.
At this moment, the Yulin guards stationed at the palace gate were extremely nervous, worried that these Hanhai warriors would rise up and attack.
